**🎵 HOMEii Flow – a full music app experience for Music Assistant inside Home Assistant**
Hey everyone,
I’m excited to share **HOMEii Flow** — a full app-like music experience for smart home dashboards.
I built it to make music control feel less like a basic control card and more like a real music app: visual, touch-friendly, clean, and useful on phones, tablets, wall panels, and dashboards.
Main highlights:
- App-like Now Playing view
- Grouping
- Dynamic artwork-based backgrounds
- Queue control and library browsing
- Smart search
- Enhanced Lyrics
- Radio, favorites, and recommendations
- Multi-player control
- Smart announcements
- Sleep timer, night mode, and scheduling
- Compact mode and swipe browsing
- Studio Mode for tablet-based control
- Visual editor and in-card settings
- Dark/Light easy mode
- And much more to explore inside the card
One of the key ideas is that the device you’re using can also become the player — so a wall tablet or browser device can be part of the music experience, not just a remote control.
This has been a long-running project with a lot of UX thinking and iteration. Codex helped with the implementation, but the product direction, testing, and polishing were done through a long hands-on process.
I’d really love to hear your thoughts and feedback — both on the overall idea and on the actual user experience. What feels useful? What would you improve? What would make it better as a daily music dashboard?
